Golnar Motevalli reports for Reuters: 

Afghanistan's only known pig has been locked in a room, away from visitors to Kabul zoo where it normally grazes beside deer and goats, because people are worried it could infect them with the virus popularly known as swine flu.

The pig is a curiosity in Muslim Afghanistan, where pork and pig products are illegal because they are considered irreligious, and has been in quarantine since Sunday after visitors expressed alarm it could spread the new flu strain.

This is perhaps also an opportunity to put in the joke received on  SMS today: "They said pigs would fly if a black man became President. Well, swine flu."
